My books are 3000 miles away. I'll take a pass.
Is pcgs just doing vams or have they branched out to other series varieties as well? I don't keep up but it might be worth knowing for future...
Didn't say they don't exist, I said I'd never seen one. Seems ANACS has been the preferred variety grader for many years, so they seem to have the...
In that case, no I haven't seen that then, as I've never seen a pcgs VAM label. ANACS yes, I've seen them.
Every Morgan is a VAM so of course I've seen it.
I agree with conder about them being price prohibited for the average collector, and the average collector is who keeps coin sellers in business....
Though it's satire, I'm really surprised the mint isn't actually considering this. I mean, 600 years of guarenteed profits from completists must...

There were 18.5 million 1916 barber dimes minted so even if somehow 75% of them are lost today, the merc is still far more scarce, though I...
Don't know why photobucket isn't using the edited version so you'll have to look at an uncropped sideways pic.
I just recently picked up a 2013 Somali elephant round as well: [IMG]
Frank....poet of the obvious. Doug....riddler of the obtuse.
I agree they are over rated. But I recently traded a half eagle for a 16d dime because it's been a blank hole in that set of mine for 20+ years...
Don't forget you have auction house fees as well. Most are around 12%. So if you're making say 15% on a flip before you deduct auction fees,...
You can compare the mintmark placing with pics of the four placement diagnostics here:...
